KML to GPX conversion does not export trackpoint data in gpsbabel
Raw
gistfile1.rst

Problem

KML tracks from Google Tracks on Android do not convert correctly to GPX with gpsbabel. No trackpoints are output.

Reason

gpsbabel, as of version 1.4.4, does not support <gx:Track> in KML. This is a newish Google extension.

References

Solution

Save to GPX from Google Tracks. Even GPSPrune, contrary to what is stated on the OSM wiki page, above, does not seem to read the Google extension multitrack.
